    Ep. - 1597 - PART ONE: THE MURDER OF MARTHA MOXLEY

    Andrew Goldman, host of Dead Certain: The Martha Moxley Murder, joins me for a two-part conversation examining one of the most haunting and unresolved cases in modern true crime.     In 1975, 15-year-old Martha Moxley was murdered just steps from her home in the affluent Belle Haven neighborhood of Greenwich, Connecticut. Decades later, the case remains a source of fascination and controversy, marked by shifting narratives, questions of privilege and power, and a legal saga that has yet to deliver definitive answers.     In this first episode, Andrew and I walk through the events of that night, the key figures at the center of the investigation, and how the case initially unfolded. We also explore how early assumptions—and the environment in which the crime took place, may have shaped the direction of the investigation from the very beginning.        Reality Life with Kate Casey  What to Watch List: https://katecasey.substack.com  Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey  Twitter: https://twitter.com/katecasey  Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/katecaseyca  Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskatecasey?lang=en  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245  Amazon List: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katecasey  Like it to Know It: https://www.shopltk.com/explore/katecasey See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Ep. - 1595 - SATURDAY SERIES: BILL LOBDELL INVESTIGATING THE FIRST FAMILY OF TELEVANGELISM

    Investigative journalist Bill Lobdell joins Kate to discuss the rise and controversy surrounding Paul and Jan Crouch, founders of Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN).     Paul, born in Missouri in 1934 to Pentecostal missionary parents, was an early radio enthusiast, while Jan, raised in Alabama in a strict religious household, brought a rebellious, charismatic energy to their partnership. After marrying in 1957 and moving to Los Angeles, they joined Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker to launch TBN in 1973 as a small, six-hours-a-night Christian station that would grow into the largest religious network in the world, reaching more than 175 countries. Through their flagship show Praise the Lord, Paul—“Poppa”—and Jan—“Momma,” known for her towering wigs, heavy makeup, and emotional on-air presence—became defining figures of televangelism, promoting the prosperity gospel: the belief that giving financially would bring material blessings from God. But behind the scenes, reporting and lawsuits alleged a far more complicated reality, including a strained marriage, separate lives, and accusations that donations funded an extravagant lifestyle—claims the network has denied. Lobdell’s Los Angeles Times investigation brought national attention to these tensions, raising enduring questions about faith, money, and influence.        Reality Life with Kate Casey  What to Watch List: https://katecasey.substack.com  Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey  Twitter: https://twitter.com/katecasey  Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/katecaseyca  Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskatecasey?lang=en  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245  Amazon List: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katecasey  Like it to Know It: https://www.shopltk.com/explore/katecasey See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
